The Fall of Virgil & The Vengeful Children Of Cyrene | Star Citizen Lore

[@PippenPA]

The lore of my Org is that it was originally founded by survivors of Virgil who decided to not settle in a new system but to band together and work against the Vanduul. Initially they would follow in the wake of Vanduul raids to do rescue and recovery missions to help other survivors. As their numbers grew they started spreading out into resource collection and stockpiling arms, equipment and supplies to fight the Vanduul. Ive been waiting for Lore Daddy to release a Fall of Virgil episode for years!

[@sleepbeinshy5775]

What org is it? Sounds like fun!

[@vorpalrobot]

​@@sleepbeinshy5775sounds like ArmCo

[@PippenPA]

We're called Corvi Vindicta. We're really small now, but trying to build up.

[@terencespross]

One of the funnier ORG back stories I've heard about was an Alien Slave Company a Banu Souli whose members are indentured slaves and have to pay back a never-ending debt. So that all the members were purchased by the Souli and by any means necessary pay off their appreciated cooperation. The more they accomplish, the more they are valued and the more they are valued the higher the price for their freedom rises for they are a treasured commodity..

I watched this video after seeing the Squadron 42 demo and I finally understand Bishop's actions before the Senate and to be honest I can't blame him.

[@nuclearsimian3281]

Wow, they really did a good job into making the Vanduul a very easy to despise villain.

[@xXE4GLEyEXx]

As much as I love most all SC content creators, I have to say your work is very much paramount in keeping my interest in the verse. Love the lore of the game even if that too is mostly under development. Still, listening to the stories and seeing the tours on major events. Yeah, this channel takes the cake in my book :)

[@thatozzyguy5246]

He helps make the game more into a connected universe then just a game

[@DigiBentoBox]

This is amazing- I am so, so excited for SQ42 to come out. This universe is so compelling, and the lore so rich and parallel to our own. It really sort of feels believable as the future of humanity. Love these epic stories of individual squadrons like the bloody birds.

[@scifrygaming]

I really love your lore series. Keep it up. I know you have said you don't get a lot of traction on this series, but I think they are amazing!

[@Qbertqueso]

I'm interested in the Tevarin POV seeing their community on Virgil and Vega were hit hard by the Vanduul raids

[@Cpt_Graftin]

From a previous lore video it was stated that the Tevarin hold a particular hatred of the Vandul.

[@Ducaso]

I imagine it’s not friendly.

[@Qbertqueso]

@@Ducaso without a doubt

[@jet_flyer]

I kinda wonder being the Messer regime if a few "stray" bombing runs didn't add to the devastation

[@Qbertqueso]

@@jet_flyer now that feels right. I also wonder if more human based recuse efforts were prioritized over Teravin

[@Crooked_Will]

Ahh , more lore to start my work day off. Thanks for making this content bud!

[@RobertP-zk8vh]

love this story, makes me want to protect the Vega system even more

[@Mikalent]

I'm wondering, lore wise the Vanduul are considered a massive threat in the SC lore. So I'm wondering how many players would chose to take their PVE to Virgil and Vega to fight the Vanduul. Not just for the lore of fighting humanity's greatest external threat in lore, but for the possibility of claiming land, and the possibility of killing a Kingship. I used to Play EVE online, and I am fully aware of how the playerbase of that game views getting a kill, or even just being on a "caused damage" list. Beyond that, some orgs would even delight in the possibility of being able to board, and even potential claim a Kingship, or any other Vanduul ships, regardless of the lore of Vanduul ships self destructing when they might lose the ship. Beyond that you have your lore players wanting to be part of a push back. Orgs looking at the possibility of reclaiming the system and their resources so they could claim a portion of the land. You have players that would join the fight if threatened, or in a defensive measure, players who would follow to salvage, humanitarian players. Basically the Vanduul as the current "big bad" would mean at least a portion of the playerbase would be willing to fight and raid the Vanduul worlds.

[@RobertP-zk8vh]

@@Mikalent i played eve for 16 years, while i do see more pve for now, there is pvp in the game its mainly bounty hunter stuff, we dont know how org wars will work or if there will be sov like in eve, for now the biggest threat is the duul i think setting up a base to get missions from the UEE will better to be close to the front most of the Vega is till fighting and not destroyed but land should be cheap, My org is going to shoot for Merc's solders of fortune. but i also have an orion to either build stuff or sell ore to fund this big fights.

[@Mikalent]

@@RobertP-zk8vh depending on how in depth manufacturing is, because I do recall CIG saying part fabrication will be a feature of the Ironclad Assault, thus there will be at least some small scale manufacturing players can undertake, I could see Merc orgs using homebrew equipment that they mined in the field. Addendum: by homebrew I mean patchwork equipment gain from salvaging, mining/manufacturing, and trading.

[@CitizenGVN]

Now I have to go to Daymar to find this crash site

[@RubenSaurus]

This has always been one of my favorite lore stories from the Star Citizen universe, thanks for bringing it to a bigger audience!

They say he's not just any historian but TheAstroHistorian!!! Keep up the awesome work!!!

[@vicsid9606]

Once again great work! I love playing your stuff in the background as I am mining or being a loot goblin in bunkers.

[@Faneus101]

cant wait to show the vanduul what PC players are capable of. (We will hunt Vanduuls until their last child is nothing more than a mist in front of my s7 cannon)

[@fishbaitx]

😮 truly chilling lore this one is

[@gyratingwolpertiger6851]

One of the best videos yet.

[@cyberg_war]

Once again a great episode. Thank you.

[@havocnchaos]

10:36 "You just said "nuclear". It's "nukular", dummy, the "s" is silent!" -Peter Griffin 😂 Jokes aside, I'm loving the well voiced, well arranged lore videos! Keep them coming.

[@omnipresencetv8929]

i love the names of old Greek Mythos also the hermetica which bascially draws me to naming my ships specifically inline with my theosophy i don't look at star citizen as a videogame it's an Opus of The mind the act of will and requirement and so far I have been shown enough of the requirement from CIG to know they are heading on the path i predicted.

[@admiraltorvosaurus8513]

Historyman is back boys!!!

[@fastforward3695]

Remember the Alamo? Good video man!

[@AcheliusDecimus]

The fact the PU will be where most of the Lore is realised. I really hope CIG finds a way to make it engaging as a continuous event. I think Xenothreat and other events are precursor to future Vanduul events.

[@Animal-0357]

Awesome episode thank you!

[@aimlis]

Ah yeah - just the lore hit I need

[@MseeBMe]

This was amazing! Thank you!

[@Vashocre]

best intro ever

[@AttiraKell]

Really enjoyable video Paul

[@Mezcon2]

The story of Cyrene reminds me a lot of the story of Reach in the Halo universe.

[@jonny_vdv]

-Cadia- Vega Stands

[@Nicodemus_Archleone]

That's a whole lot of hate when you purpose build a machine simply to punch a vanduul in the face

[@TheAstroHistorian]

Some generational rage

[@MrZennaw]

2:50 Called the Mega tree! And there's fruit in those trees, and there's seeds in those fruits. I'm talking about Mega seeds, th-ther-they're incredibly powerful and I need 'em to h[burps]-elp me with my research, Morty

[@gortexfogg]

We need more Vanduul and heritage ships (Anvil Wildfire) in game so players can do some historical roleplaying of this in the verse (and if the Virgil system was in game too ... !!).

[@owd200]

Class is in session, Citizens.

[@x5vampire5x]

Thank you lore daddy.

[@Lord_Kantor]

Isnt Virgil on the west side of the Empire, not the east? Or is 4:24 "east of the empire" in reference to Terra?

[@TheAstroHistorian]

Virgil was the first success of Project Farstar and for a time was the bridge between the western and eastern empires.

[@sharxbyte]

Nuclear not nucular T.T Great video Paul!

[@tkc1129]

I'll be among those bringing back Tyber and Virgil into humanity's fold. ;-)

[@tje.o.a5477]

Wonder if titan suits will be added, now that SQ42 is almost complete, and ready to be shipped.

[@TheAstroHistorian]

I doubt SQ 42 is ready to ship or even complete. But it does sound like they are getting close to the Beta phase, where it's mostly testing. That being said I am almost sure that we will be seeing some versions of these suits in the next year if Squadron is coming out next year.

[@tje.o.a5477]

@@TheAstroHistorian All I wanna hear :D I also find your opinion on SQ42 interesting. Last I checked it was feature complete, and they are just polishing it right now.

[@PandaTheGray]

Very interesting. Great timing to remind us of the xeno threat, o7 If we allow the Banu and Xi'an into Stanton, it is only a matter of time until the Vanduul come.

[@ChaosNate121]

Not to be that guy, but Vega 2 is Aremis. Vega 3 is Selene. You had them mixed up towards the end of the video. Absolutely love the video regardless

[@TheAstroHistorian]

Thought I corrected it in the edit. Thanks for being that guy.
